What is Kindergarten Round-Up?
Kindergarten Round-Up is a special event designed to help children and families take their first step into the school experience. During this one-hour event, you and your incoming kindergartener will have the chance to:

Visit your neighborhood elementary school
Meet kindergarten teachers and school staff
Participate in fun, hands-on activities
Receive important information about registration, school routines, and what to expect this fall

Why it matters:
This event helps children feel comfortable and confident about starting school, while giving families a valuable opportunity to ask questions, learn about daily routines, and begin building connections with school staff. Starting strong sets the stage for a successful school year—and we’re here to support you every step of the way.

We can’t wait to meet your future kindergartener!

(Please Note: Groff Elementary will hold its round-up event at Vanguard Academy)
